The God of War series has cast Sonya Walger in the role of Freya.

      Prime Video's upcoming series adaptation of *God of War* has cast a key role. Sonya Walger (from *Lost*) will portray the Valkyrie warrior Freya.

      Based on the popular PlayStation games, *God of War* follows the journey of father and son, Kratos and Atreus, as they seek to scatter the ashes of their wife and mother, Faye. Throughout their quest, Kratos aims to guide his son in becoming a better god, while Atreus endeavors to teach his father how to be more human. The Prime series is adapting the reboot from Santa Monica Studio, which launched *God of War* in 2018, followed by its sequel, *God of War Ragnarök*, in 2022.

      Freya is a Vanir goddess and princess known for her powerful, ancient magic. She was previously married to Odin and held the title of Queen of the Valkyries in Asgard, a role she acquired on her wedding day. Freya is portrayed as strong, wise, and burdened by regrets. Following her tumultuous marriage to Odin, which concluded with her banishment, she lost contact with her family and homeland, Vanaheim. For a century, Freya has isolated herself in Midgard, living as a recluse in a concealed glade, feared by humans, often referred to as the Witch of the Woods.

      Ronald D. Moore, known for his work on *Star Trek: The Next Generation* and *Deep Space Nine*, as well as *Battlestar Galactica*, *Outlander*, and *For All Mankind*—the latter of which also features Walger—will create *God of War*, serving as showrunner, writer, and executive producer. *Outlander* is currently airing its final season on Starz, while the fifth season of *For All Mankind* is set to debut next month, having already been renewed for a sixth and final season.

      Frederick E.O. Toye (from *Shōgun*) is directing the initial two episodes of *God of War*, which has been ordered for two seasons by Prime. Filming is currently underway in Vancouver.

      The cast includes Ryan Hurst as Kratos, Callum Vinson as Atreus, Mandy Patinkin as Odin, Ed Skrein as Baldur, Max Parker as Heimdall, Ólafur Darri Ólafsson as Thor, Teresa Palmer as Sif, Alastair Duncan as Mimir, Jeff Gulka as Sindri, Danny Woodburn as Brok, Louis Cunningham as Modi, Ben Chapple as Magni, Evelyn Miller as Gna, and Island Austin as Thrud.
